Alice, try the one that looks like chicken tracks. (maybe 'feather'
stitch?) . . . or the one that looks like little hills drawn with a single
row of stitches (sort of a scallop). Any oops that you have with the blind
stitch is going to be visible 15 feet away on a galloping horse. If you
can, do your stitching from the top side of the quilt so you can control the
appearance. The SM will try to bog down at the corners so you'll want to
release the pressure of the presser foot some. Tell your SM that You are in
control and use the hand wheel at the corners if you have to in order to
have a uniform stitch. I didn't mean to make this sound so tedious; just
thought I'd arm you with all the tricks. Polly
That is the second time in two days that I have read about using the
feather stitch. The other was about applique. I'm gonna have to use
this stitch.
